unfortunately, automake doesn't seem to handle this situation correctly.
Not surprising. ctf-spec.texi:2: unknown command `forcedError' Maybe you would like to look into it? It's not like I have any special knowledge here. At least the error message could be improved, if it turns out not to be feasible to make it work. +else +ctf-spec.info: Seems like a fine workaround? I guess I could imagine documenting it, if that's the outcome. --thanks, karl.
